In doing this, he would end up partnering with a fellow Stanford grad student in his classes: Sergey Brin. This research project came to be known as "BackRub.
Because Page's focus on web linking was on the mathematical elements of it, he saw the structure of links as a graph.

For Sergey and me this is a very exciting new chapter in the life of Google—the birth of Alphabet.
